About Platypus Finance

Platypus Finance is a novel stablecoin AMM on Avalanche that introduces a 'single-sided' liquidity model where providers deposit only one type of stablecoin rather than a pair. This solves the problem of impermanent loss from stablecoin price divergence. The protocol uses a coverage ratio mechanism to maintain soft pegs and dynamically adjusts fees to incentivize balance. PTP is the governance token used for directing liquidity incentives and platform governance, while vePTP (vote-escrowed PTP) provides boosted rewards.

How to Swap PTP

Swapping Platypus Finance (PTP) on SyntheticSwap is simple and requires no account or KYC. PTP operates on Avalanche's C-Chain, compatible with Core Wallet, MetaMask (Avalanche network), Trust Wallet, and Ledger. Select PTP in SyntheticSwap, choose your output asset, enter a receiving wallet address, and confirm the exchange rate. Avalanche's sub-second finality ensures your swap settles quickly — the destination asset lands in your specified wallet automatically.

How to Store PTP

Store PTP in MetaMask connected to Avalanche C-Chain or any Avalanche-compatible wallet. PTP requires AVAX for gas fees.
